RSS

Starlight Blog automatically generates an RSS feed for your blog when the Astro site option is set. When defined, the following changes are made:

An RSS feed is generated at /blog/rss.xml (can be customized with the prefix option)
A sidebar link to the RSS feed is added to the blog
A social link to the RSS feed is added to the Starlight header
RSS feed auto-discovery is automatically configured

Configure your RSS feed

Set the Astro site configuration option in the astro.config.mjs file.

import starlight from '@astrojs/starlight'
import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config'
import starlightBlog from 'starlight-blog'

export default defineConfig({
  site: 'https://www.example.com'
  starlight({
    social: {
      plugins: [starlightBlog()],
      title: 'My Docs',
    },
  }),
})

This will create a .xml file for feed readers, add a sidebar link to the RSS feed, add the standard RSS icon to your website’s header and configure RSS feed auto-discovery.
